Lifespan heterogeneity reflects intrinsic quality, not trade-offs
Silvia Cattelan, Dario Riccardo Valenzano

This study shows that turquoise killifish males experience reproductive aging despite being short-lived, with declining sperm quality and reduced embryo survival as they age.

This study investigates how sperm length evolves in relation to body mass in tetrapods, finding that trade-offs with sperm competition and clutch size shape this relationship.

The paper finds that in guppies, telomere length is negatively correlated with sperm production, suggesting a trade-off between reproduction and maintenance rather than aging.
